Visit Pearl Harbor

by

One of the best trips we have ever taken was when my husband and I went to Oahu in Hawaii. While many people view Hawaii as a must see “bucket list” destination for the breathtaking views, as history lovers its likely your main destination is Pearl Harbor. As with most historical experiences, Pearl Harbor is a somber reminder of monumental sacrifice. You can’t help but feel the weightiness and significance of the site of this historical event that propelled the USA into another global conflict when you visit this place, especially if you take a tour of the USS Arizona Memorial. If you do decide to visit, you can also see the USS Missouri, were the treaty between the USA and Japan was signed, bringing an end to the Pacific Front Conflict. So, in one visit, you can simultaneously see where WW II began and ended for the USA. There are very few places we say are a “must see,” but Pearl Harbor is for sure one of them!

Visit Plymouth and Boston

by

Okay, history lovers!

Can you imagine a better trip than visiting the original site of the Pilgrims and then going to see where Paul Revere lived in Boston? Our suggestion is that you do both! My husband and I were trying to think of a way to see both these sites. First, we went to Plymouth and visit a replica of the May Flower and see Plymouth Rock. This only took us a couple of hours. Then, there is a train at Plymouth that will take you all the way to Boston! So, we took the train to Boston and toured areas including the site of the Boston Massacre, this historic grave of “Mother Goose,” Paul Revere’s home, and more! Then we came back to Plymouth where we parked our car.  It only takes about an hour by train. Our kids loved the train ride itself and the trip!

By starting in Plymouth, and taking the train to Boston, we saw the replica of the May Flower, Plymouth Rock, and the Site of the Boston Massacre all in one day!

 

We suggest you check out these two sites here if you are interested in seeing Plymouth and Boston in ONE DAY!
